Текст песни Adrian Belew - Idiom

it was raining cats and dogs
between a rock and a hard place
so I drove him up the wall
and down to the wire
at the drop of a hat,
an arm and a leg
he lost his head
for a piece of cake

so he went back to the drawing board
for a taste of his own medicine
with a chip on his shoulder
tighter than dick's hat band
he was off the hook
on the fence
over the top
and out on a limb

singing
I'm an idiom
somebody's pulling my leg
I'm an idiom
you must be pulling my leg
